Apr 25, 2008 Dark cherry brown with thin head. Aroma is mostly corriander and fruit. Taste is a wonder of complexity. Corriander, pepper, malty sweetness and toasted malt. Very dry, slightly bitter finish. Love it.

Apr 25, 2008 Quite dark brownish red pour with large big-bubbly head. Malt, licorice, coriander, roasty notes are all quite present. This is a sipping ale, especially considering the price. Quite complex. One of my favorite labels, too.

Apr 19, 2008 Dark brown and not fizzy, tastes mostly like coffee. There is an underlying richness to it, it’s velvety somewhat. It was fairly good but I was disappointed. Very high price.

Apr 13, 2008 33 cL bottle. Pours dark brown with a deep redish hue and diminished light tan head. Plum fruity aroma. Mild malt, caramel and minor liqourice note too. Flavour is roasted malt with chocolate smoothness and bitterness. Light bitter and liqourice like bite following. Growing overripe fruity plum notes which gives reminiscence of Belgian trappist brews like Westmalle, Rochefort and a bit of St Sixtus. Dry yeasty spiced finish with a lingering fruit note. Nice one.

Apr 1, 2008 Bottle from Bitter Virtue. Darkish ruby colour.
Liquorice edge to the roasted malts slightly sweet with musty earthy
undertones which add a slightly aged vinous feel to the beer. This is
quite subtly flavoured with different mouthfeels revealing new woody and
fruity flavours. Not overly sweet and with nicely integrated layers of
flavour. Much better than the others I’ve tasted.

Mar 31, 2008 Pours with a light brown, creamy, head, good lacing. Clear dark brown body. Aroma of coriander, curacao liqueur, tangarines, and some malts. Taste is of very refreshing bitter citrus. Ultra creamy mouthfeel with delicate carbonation. Great stuff.

Mar 28, 2008 Bottle - A much darker color than I imagined. Pours a dark brown with reddish tint. Tan head that did go away quickly. Very complex nose of raisen, malt, nuts and molasses. Very complex flavor with spice, pepper, alcohol and a coffee like bitter finish. Very warming and delicious.
